Anne Ryan, Mary Smith, Fiona De Vries, Anna Telfer (CAPTAIN),
Alison Bartlett, Alex Glennie and Sheena Wood

Scotland lost 4-1 to Spain in their concluding match of the rain-hit European senior women's amateur team golf championship near Salzburg in Austria.

Because the course was waterlogged until Thursday, only one qualifying round was possible and only four teams qualified for the championship flight.

The Scots finished second in Flight B and were ranked sixth overall.

England beat France 3 1/2-1 1/2 in the Flight A final. Ireland were ranked third after finishing with a 4-1 win over Sweden.

Other result: Germany 1, Belgium 4.
